This course is NOT just a basic introduction to the Kano Model. It explains the basic concepts and provides tools for performing a detailed analysis of customer needs and expectations.
1. Microsoft Excel and Google Forms collect customer feedback on various product features.
2. Microsoft Excel is used to analyze customer responses.
The survey questionnaire consists of functional and dysfunctional questions for each feature. Based on the response to these questions, a feature could be classified as:
1. Must-be Quality
2. One-dimensional Quality
3. Attractive Quality
4. Indifferent Quality
5. Reverse Quality
Based on multiple customer responses, a summary table is created for each feature. This helps in understanding which category a feature belongs to. To prioritize features and present the summary in graphical form, a Better/Worst Plot is created.
Performing all these steps using a pen/paper format of the form and manually classifying the features is a time-consuming and boring process. If the survey is conducted on a bigger scale the manual calculations are impossible and impractical to perform. For this, we will be using Microsoft Excel and some advanced features (INDEX, XMATCH and COUNTIF functions) to perform the analysis.
This tool is widely used by product development professionals to decide what features should be implemented in the new product or in the upgraded version of the product.
Six Sigma and improvement professionals also use this tool to decide what improvement initiatives should be prioritized.
Who this course is for:
- People involved in product development or product improvement
